WHY DID YOU JOIN AIA SEATTLE?
I was looking for ways to be part of something larger than myself, learn, and continue to grow professionally.
WHAT IS THE VALUE OF AIA TO YOU?
Connection and community engagement. The issues our communities are facing are so much larger than us individually. AIA provides a platform and opportunity to connecting with a diverse group of people across professions, learn, and contribute to the design potential of our city.
WHERE IS THE FIELD OF ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING, OR CONSTRUCTION HEADED?
Its such an interesting time for the AEC industry. The adoption of AI and increased utilization of automation are rapidly transforming the ways we conceive, approach and deliver projects and will only continue to disrupt and revolutionize the field. My hope is that this will lead to more intelligent, equitable and regenerative projects that shape the next phase(s) of our city.
